You want your students to create short public service announcements and post them as vodcasts on ITunesU, but the video camera is not working and cannot be fixed prior to class. How can you adapt this lesson without this technology?
- Use the time to write the script of the public service announcement.
- Practice the script to be able to record it quicker when the time comes.
- Perform it for other classrooms as a "traveling troupe."
- Perform it for their own class (possibly on stage in the school auditorium?).
- Cut class a few minutes short to move to the next subject, and then steal back that time at a future date when the technology is working.
- Make a poster, of which a picture can later be taken and posted online.
